Looking for a comparatively affordable vaping device that has all the premium features, then the DaVinci IQC Vaporizer is the most reliable option that you can take. It is a slim and portable device with a heating system that works like a powerhouse. This device is considered by many as a product meant to overcome the original IQ2 Vaporizer’s flaws.
In this review, I will give my opinion on how well DaVinci Tech has managed to provide users with all the necessary features in an affordable price range. The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer has much more to offer than being an affordable device, which you will understand while reading this review.
I received my DaVinci IQC Vaporizer in a premium packing (not as premium and heavy as the DaVinci IQ2 Carbon Vaporizer). The box contained the device on the top waiting for me to hold it in my hands. Below the device, I found the following accessories:
A 10-millimeter water pipe adapter
A 90-cm braided USB-C cable
A stirring tool
A cleaning brush
Alcohol wipes
A user manual
The accessories did not contain the dosage pods, so loading the device is traditional. Carrying and loading the dry herbs can be a problem. However, the stirring tool is handy for scratching the residue from the heating chamber. If you are wondering, there is no grinder or hydrotube in the package.
Pros
Compact and light for portable use
Prominent LED grid with easy physical controls
Mobile app controllability for easy use
Option to switch between precise and preset intensities
From the monetary point of view, the DaVinci IQC Vaporizer is much better than other OG products from the manufacturer. The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer is available on the official website for $199. You might find many better vaporizers for the same price. However, DaVinci Tech’s goodwill is worth this price due to the quality that it provides. It is surely worth a purchase if you have bucks in your pockets.
Design & Build Quality
The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer felt comfortable when I held it for the first time. It was not shiny but the body felt really smooth. It is 9.2 cm long and 2.5 cm slim. Considering these dimensions, the device is portable and pocketable.
The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer has two openings at each end. One end has a heating chamber that is made of glass lined and made of ceramic. However, the lid does not have a pearl to tightly pack the dry herbs loaded inside the chamber. The other end contains the removable battery. You can just open the lid and switch the batteries.
The design is simple and elegant. The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer has an LED grid on the face while the shape is stable enough to rest the device upright on the table. The buttons on the side are identical to the DaVinci IQ2 and the back of the device has a USB-C port for charging.
Vaping Performance
The vaping performance of the DaVinci IQC Vaporizer is similar to every other device in the series. I have always been a big fan of their heating system. The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer has a glass-lined ceramic heating chamber powered by conduction technology.
The 0.5-gram loading capacity was sufficient enough for me to enjoy a marathon session. The lid lacked the OG DaVinci pearl to press the dry herb perfectly. However, other components managed to maintain the flavor and warmth of every sip that I took.
The temperature settings were simple to adjust as I have been a DaVinci user for years. The settings are explained later in the review. However, the isolated and sealed glass vapor path made sure that the taste was not impaired throughout the smoking session. The batch was prepared within 30 seconds.
Battery Life & Charging
I liked the DaVinci IQC Vaporizer for its efficient power management. It has an 18650 battery with a 3000 mAh capacity. After charging the device using its type-C USB cable, I started vaping. It took around 2 hours for the device’s battery to run out entirely. A 2-hour battery life in a DaVinci device is a welcome addition.
Moreover, the DaVinci IQC Vaporizer supports easy battery replacement as 18650 batteries are removable. You can carry an extra set of 18650 batteries to make sure that you never fall short when traveling.
My DaVinci IQC Vaporizer charged within 2 hours if you are wondering. The USB-C charging technology is efficient enough to overcome the power miseries of the DaVinci IQ2 Vaporizer. The device also supports reverse charging, so you can charge your mobile phone when you are on the go.
Ease Of Use
The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer is fairly simple to use if you have previously used a device from the series. It supports both precise and smart temperature intensities available. I like to control when vaping, so the precise temperature intensities between 0 and 221 degrees Celsius were one of the most valuable features that the manufacturer has retained.
Moreover, the smart path temperature settings are ideal for the newbies who want distinct flavor changes at each option. These preset temperature levels comprise flavor, mind, body, and rest. The device has 3 buttons to enable physical controllability. The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer does support mobile app controllability, but I did not use it because the device did not support dosage tracking.
Safety Features
The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer has several safety features that I love in every DaVinci product. The company says that every component is a heavy metal tested. Such a test makes sure that the device does not radiate harmful waves or intoxicate the dry herbs cooked.
Moreover, this device has no loose parts so hot sparks and chunks of dry herbs would not come out when you are enjoying the session. I liked the vibration feedback that adds to the safety features. You will get an alert when the vapors are ready or when the battery gets low.
Customization Options
I have always admired the DaVinci devices for their compatibility with water bongs and filters. The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer comes with a 10-millimeter water pipe adapter to make your vaping experience more soothing and flavorful.
Moreover, you can opt for the way you want to use the DaVinci IQC Vaporizer. The device has simple physical controls and mobile app support to make sure that remote handling is possible. The precise intensities along with the smart paths are great options to have at your disposal.
Final Verdict: Is It Worth Buying?
The DaVinci IQC Vaporizer is surely one of the best DaVinci Tech devices with the highest value for money. Its core features like the heating system and controls are identical to the DaVinci IQ2 and IQ2 Carbon. However, the price is $200 (nearly half of its contemporaries in the product line).
This device is an excellent companion for smoking and simple usage. However, premium features like the trademark Air Dial and dosage tracking technology are missing. Although these features are handy for tailored vaping sessions, other features are enough to produce batches of aromatic and warm vapors.
